Which 2 States Should The U.S. Lose; If You Were Asked To Choose? (largest, economy)

[jman650]

Delaware and New Hampshire for nothing more than the simple fact I'm unaware of anything particularly special in those states, most likely my fault and not theirs.

Idaho: The biggest practical joke in history.

psst. Guess what? IT DOESN'T EXIST!!! And now that you know it doesn't exist, has your life changed at all? Nope. That's my point exactly.

Mississippi: Just because it seems like it sucks.

Yes, in the ego catagory I humbly hand the crown to NY!

I say drop New York because it will decrease the arrogant population of the country by about 50%.

Then drop Oklahoma because Oklahoma sucks.

[jeepejeep]

California and Massachusetts. Main homes of the liberals. (Of course, all the Libs would have to stay there).

By all means, base your assumptions on old reruns of In the Heat of the Night .
BTW, Idaho is gorgeous.

Why would Austin build a wall?

And I guarantee they'd have more loyalty to Texas than to the rest of the states. So I don't get the link remark either. Houston and Dallas are the ones with the large, international airports. When I lived in Austin, it seemed like there were a lot more native Texans there than in places like Houston and Dallas. And being that it's the state capital, there was Texan culture, symbols etc everywhere.

Still fuming about the BCS?

Still though it would be a tragedy to lose the Red River Shootout, one of the greatest games of the season. 45-35.

Oklahoma has sucked long before the BCS and will continue to suck long after each and every one of us on this forum is dead. That's just the natural order of things

If you dumped Louisiana, college sports would just suck now wouldn't they (GEAUX TIGERS!!)? Really if you dumped any state in the South, you're sports would suck, professional sports would really suck haha. What would happen to the NBA and NFL if there were no southerners there. HAHAHAHAHA. It would all be a joke.


On a more serious note and off of my CWS high... The South is so, so rich in history. You would be losing an important chunk of American culture. Plus, half of you're states wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the LA purchase . Plus, you wouldn't have the REAL mardi gras in your country. What a shame that would be.

On the plus side, Britney Spears wouldn't be from the U.S. anymore. LMAO.

IMO, Hawaii and Alaska. They don't want to be with us anyway.
